Update:19/12/2013 – You can now play Battleship at Vera&John and Mr Green mobile casinos before anyone else.
And we are as excited as siblings shouting “A5! I said A5!! There is so a ship there!! You lying $%*$%^*$!!”
As you might be able to tell, we had a calm and constructive childhood. Part of which was playing countless classic games right around this time of year when our parents told us we couldn’t watch TV.
One of those games was Hasbro’s Battleship. And now you can enjoy it over the festive season on your tablet, Android phone or iPhone.
What Can you Expect From that Latest IGT Mobile Slot?
We will spare you the bad puns about ‘action-packed’ and ‘plain sailing’. Chances are, if you are a fan of IGT slots you might have played the online version at casinos such as Mr Green or Betfred (who currently has the online version and will probably follow Vera&John casino in putting it on mobile).
So here are the highlights for those who’ve never heard of it:
- Double Multiplier Stacked Wilds
- Interactive Bonus picker
- 5 reels, 40 paylines
- The Bonus Game is based whole-heartedly on the original board game, where you’ll be required to sink your opponent’s ships. You’ll be transported to a new game screen where you will decide which enemy ships to target and attack – each rewarding you with different prizes from Free Spins to Multipliers and additional Bonus cash.
- Rewards from the bonus games include up to 36 Free Spins, a 10 times multiplier or 50 times your total wager.
- Expect Naval Officers, Fighter Jets, and Rescue Helicopter icons to complete the water army feel.
What will it look like on mobile has yet to be decided. We hope that it will resemble in style and play as well as its sister Hasbro mobile slot, Monopoly Dream Life, which only came out the other week and which we thoroughly enjoyed. Easy to play and worked beautifully on all the devices, it was fun too.
Unfortunately be prepared for higher than usual betting limits as with so many of the IGT mobile slots. But hey Betfred Casino usually has the IGT mobile slot with a lower betting range if you are on a budget this month.
Otherwise, Vera & John Casino will certainly be the first to put this prime slot on their mobile platform on the 19th of December and that’s where we will go to play it and review it as soon as it’s out.
